Is there any way to do this? Im asking because i want to know if it is possible to utilize Pokemon Diamond/Pearl's migrate function with FR/LG/E. Im currently using No$GBA with a BIOS and Firmware and also have No$Zoomer, but havent been able to figure out a way to make this work.

DeSmuMe is capable of doing this. you can load a gba save file into DeSmuME and then proceed as normal within the game. Do note that you have to import your no$gba save file from pokémon DPP first to maintain your progress in the game first, because DeSmuME uses a different save format.

here's a guide in case you can't find your save file, or if you can't get your save to work

Warning: Spoilers inside!

Quoted from QUOTE:

Converting a No$gba save file to a DeSmuME save file
1. Go to File -> Import Backup Memory
2. Look for your No$gba .sav file, which is inside the BATTERY folder. Select it.
3. Load your in-game save as per normal. You should be able to do it now!

Not entirely true. In older versions of DeSmeME, you could just leave saves in the same directory as the roms, but since 0.9.6, they are stored in a separate folder of DeSmuME, also the way save files are handled is different since that version. Therefore, the best way to use old save files is to import them, so you have a fail-proof solution to maintaining your old saves. And there's the fact tha DeSmuME uses *.dsv files instead of *.sav, so there is no way it could work with DeSmuME without converting it first because DeSmuME won't recognize *.sav files as DS saves.
